Adults, it's your turn to go on a field trip to the KU Natural History Museum. There's no bus, but there is a mimosa and a light brunch: welcome to Field Trip Science, starting in fall 2016.

What can falling anvils and exploding TNT tell us about how energy works in the cartoon and real worlds? Using classic cartoon scenarios, explore how fundamental forces and properties of matter build a framework for thinking about energy across its different contexts. This field trip experience is based on our hands-on school field trip programs offered to more than 3,000 K-12 students each year.

Must be 21 to attend; pre-registration and payment required. Call 785.864.4173 to register.
